#TrumpTariffs Starting July 7, 2025, Trump's tariffs return to the center of the global economic debate, with significant repercussions for international trade and the economy of the United States.

The imminent expiration of the 90-day pause on President Trump's broad tariff plan has generated significant changes in how numerous companies operate, amid growing uncertainty in supply chains. The trade policies implemented by the president are causing particularly sensitive disruptions in the Asia-Pacific region.

One of the most notable moves is the announcement of new 20% tariffs on Vietnamese products, a figure considerably lower than the original rate that was set to take effect next week, suggesting an attempt to balance trade pressure and regional stability.

During his second term, Trump pushed for an openly protectionist policy, imposing high tariffs that affected almost all imported goods. As a result, the average effective tariff rate in the United States skyrocketed from 2.5% to nearly 27% between January and April 2025. This increase has had a direct impact on consumers: it is estimated that the average additional taxes per household amount to nearly $1,200 so far this year.

In light of this scenario, the world watches closely as global trade is reconfigured under the influence of these measures, whose effects could extend beyond U.S. borders.
